The KIA Sedona

For the fifth consecutive year, KIA was named the number one non-luxury automotive brand by J.D. Power in the 2019 J.D. Power Initial Quality Study (IQS), with a reported 70 problems per 100 vehicles, a two-point improvement over last year's results. KIA's continued success in IQS was led by having four models - Rio, Forte (Cerato), Sportage and Soul - included among the top 10 vehicles in the industry, the most of any brand. In addition, KIA had segment-topping performances from Rio (Small Car), Forte (Compact Car), Sportage (Small SUV) and Sedona (Minivan).

Following its debut at the New York Auto Show in March 2018, the comprehensively refreshed KIA Grand Sedona has an upgraded exterior and interior, as well as enriched standard specification levels.

The KIA Grand Sedona was designed jointly through KIA's design centres in South Korea and California. Under the direction of Peter Schreyer, the designers threw stereotypical "minivan" approach out the window and instead looked to European crossover design trends to deliver a vehicle that is not only practical, but also desirable.

"And desirable it was," says Gary Scott, CEO of KIA Motors South Africa. "In 2015, it won the Korean Car of the Year Award, and was added to Ward's Auto '10 Best Interiors' list. More notably, the authoritative J.D. Power awarded it with an APEAL (Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout) Award - a feat it repeated in 2016, 2017 and 2018."

In South Africa, it was one of three KIA semi-finalists for the WesBank/SAGMJ Car of the Year competition, and has been named CAR Magazine's 'Best Buy' in the MPV segment in 2016, 2017 and 2018.

For the chance to test drive, or the chance to own this amazing 7-seater luxury vehicle, contact KIA Umhlanga on 031 - 570 4700 or visit their showroom at 1 - 3 Meridian Drive, Umhlanga Ridge.
